SCITUATE — March 30, 2026 — In a move to balance elementary enrollment and address community feedback, Interim Superintendent Dr. Tom Raab presented a third redistricting option during Monday night’s School Committee meeting. The proposal seeks to minimize student displacement at Wampatuck and Jenkins schools while shifting more students toward the town’s new elementary facility, marking a critical turning point in the district’s reconfiguration.
The Full Story
Presided over by Vice Chair Maria Fenwick in the absence of Chair Nicole Brandolini, the committee focused heavily on the future of Scituate’s elementary boundaries. Dr. Raab introduced “Option 3,” a redistricting map developed in direct response to parental concerns raised during previous public forums. This new iteration aims to reduce the number of students moved from Wampatuck and Jenkins while increasing the cohort assigned to the incoming elementary school. [07:17]
